Thursday July 20 – Sunday July 23, 2006

Film and video are modern and powerful creative mediums. Film entertains, educates, enlightens and can inspire us into action. The 2nd Annual Plymouth Independent Film Festival, July 20, 2006 through July 23, 2006 will host filmmakers from near and far through screenings of unique, powerful and creative films. In addition to a variety of Independent screenings, we will highlight films focused on environmental and social issues – our two permanent yearly themes. The festival will also host a variety of related media and technology workshops, special performances and events, and FREE outdoor waterfront screenings - all promoting and integrating local tourism and commerce, while celebrating Plymouth’s own history, culture and arts.

Festival goals include:
  • To entertain, enlighten and inspire audiences.
  • To build on the success of the 2005 festival.
  • Attract great, unique and powerful films.
  • Promote cultural diversity and environmental awareness through film, arts and culture.
